Both OxyContin and Percocet contain Oxycodone. OxyContin is a long acting formula of Oxycodone that is meant to disperse medication over a 12 hour period. Percocet is a combination drug containing Oxycodone and Acetaminophen. It is a short acting or immediate release product and only lasts 4-8 hours depending on a persons metabolism. OxyContin does not contain acetaminophen, only oxycodone.
